This is a newly released set from My Favorite Things called Hot Stuff. Too darn cute!

Jen’s SCS challenge LSC118 is to create a retirement card. Hmmmmm…… Relax!!!

The main image was colored with Copic markers.

Stamps: Hot Stuff, Time For the Bubbly - My Favorite Things

Paper: Georgia Pacific White, Almost Amethyst, Elegant Eggplant

Accessories: Mega Circle punch, Giga Scallop Circle punch, Signo Gel pen, Ribbon by American Crafts

I have the Copic Ciao markers (4 sets) and I found good matches for most of the SU colors among my sets. The colors that I didn’t find a close match to were Perfect Plum, Pink Passion, Pixie Pink, Bravo Burgandy, Bordering Blue, Close to Cocoa & Ruby Red. There are colors that are similar to most of these colors but I wouldn’t say they were close enough to call them a match.

Among my colors are a beautiful selection of browns, reds and pinks, just not a match to the above colors.

These are the color matches (very close in color) that I came up with:
